Texas Updates State ID and Driver’s Licenses for Drivers with Disabilities
· Texas Border Business
The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) has announced updates to driver licenses (DL) and identification (ID) cards for individuals with disabilities. In collaboration with the Governor’s Committee on People with Disabilities (GCPD), the Texas Driving with Disability Program now includes a new option for 'Deaf/Hard of Hearing' alongside the existing 'Communication Impediment' indicator. These options help inform law enforcement about a driver's communication challenges. To enroll, individuals must submit a signed Physician/Psychiatrist’s Statement Form DL-101 and other required documentation at a DPS office. A recent webinar was held to explain these changes and how to utilize the program.
